Nadal is a marvellous player and has worked very hard to transfer from clay to grass as he displayed in the final at Queen's Club London last week-end, but I do wish he and Sharapova would stop all that grunting, gets on one's nerves !!!

I agree that is the one negative about rafa is the grunting, though he does not do it on every play as with Maria and I do not believe he is close to as loud . I do wish it was softer but I want nothing changed until he wins Wimbledon and the US Open.

It sure looks like Nadal to win the 2008 Wimbledon Championships, but I would have liked Federer to achieve his sixth title there. It is quite amazing how Nadal has switched his play on clay to grass is such quick time ! I was happy to see Murray win today and has now reached the 4th round. On paper he should beat Keifer (27) seed.

Rafa has been amazing. His going from clay to grass, playing so many tourney's very small break, being so physically strong at all times and improving his serve over the 9 months as much as he has. Rafa also has had a much more challenging draw than Fed, this time at least.

The Murray v Gasquet match was "Nail-biting" my, what a fighter Murray is ! shame he has to play Nadal in the quarters' hope he puts up a good performance, at least he has progressed further in Wimbledon 2008 than he has in previous Grand Slams.
